Top Canoe & kayak rental services in Bayview, Australia

Our family of 5 were keen to explore Pittwater and all of the hidden gems we had heard about. We hired 2 double kayaks and a single for my oldest. The explanation of how and where to go was simple and straight forward.
We had a bit of wind but but that didn’t cause us much trouble since we stuck close to Scotland island and then up to Long Nose point for a picnic and then back past hot rock springs.
We spent 3-4 hours paddling and exploring. Would recommend this adventure for any family, a great way to experience Pittwater - we will be back soon!

My mobility impaired client, Stephen, and I found Justin a very accommodating bloke and went out of his way to help us get into the water and helped us out as much as possible getting us out at the end of the trip. Top bloke and very enthusiastic. We will be back.

We have made a reservation for our daughters birthday party! Awful service,we have been told that if the weather is bad we would get refund or credit.We arrived there at 11:45 and had the booking for 12:30 unfortunately the weather was bad and we have been advised that we could come back later that day or have credit for another time.The next day we called to reschedule and instead of having credit we have been yelled at on the phone and filled with lies.We don't recommended using Justin's service to anybody unless you want your money to be stolen this is the place for you.Very sad that my daughters couldn't enjoy there birthday party with their friends.

Don't bother with this place. We made a booking for 9am, we were still waiting at the office at 9.25 for someone to turn up so we left. I called the guy when I got home and apparently it's my fault. Appalling service and attitude.

Really disappointed. Was told on the day that the weather was getting worse and wouldn’t be safe for us. We thanked the owner for being upfront and for offering a refund. No refund after 4 weeks. They even said they would refund by this date etc etc. Texted and no response. Had to call up my credit card accompany to dispute the charges. Won’t be coming back for the lack of accountability

The guide Justin took us on a tour and he was so funny and enthusiastic. He showed us these waterfalls and took as around the beautiful Pittwater. I would definitely recommend this to all people it is so easy! Such a fun day out on the water as well. I will be back to rent my own next time!

Whenever I go to the beach or bay spots, looking for my favourite water fun, kayaking, and I had lots of fun today here. Daniel’s service for today was great. He was very welcome person.
Dont’s worry, there’s a clean bathroom around the corner to take a shower and fresh up.
Dont miss the Cafe and Restaurant at the same place!

Nice scenery out in the bay on the canoe. But the reception from the owner and staff at Paddlecraft was a little cold and distant. No friendly greeting or recommendations on what is good to take on the canoe or instructions for first time canoers.
I made a booking the day before arriving on Anzac day and I don't think the staff on desk dirty knew that, when I went to check in. Then he went off to get the canoes while my partner and I filled in some information on the iPad. Once we were done the owner came in and gave us a wet bag for our phones then the desk man returned and told us to get paddles and put on life jackets then asked if we've canoed before which we replied no then said "oh, it'll be easy" then showed us our canoe and left us to lift the canoes down the drive to the bay and figure out how to row.
While out on the bay we ended up having to take off our hats as the wind kept blowing them off, but once we put them in our canoes they got completely soaked, which caused one of the hats to lose shape. And we also had a capsize too, but that was pretty funny! But yeah, the greeting from the company did feel a little distant and it would be nice if we were given more recommendations on what we shouldn't take out in the boat. I'm not keen to return and do more business.
But other than that the area is beautiful, there is some free parking the rest is ticket parking and there are some very nice picnic spots near by.
